WELCOME
WELCOME BACK EVERYONE. THE DOCTOR IS IN AND TAKING ON ALL OF YOUR COVERED WORLD ISSUES
FROM HOW TO DROP THE QUARANTINE
15 TO MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL SELF
CARE. THIS MORNING THE HOST OF
THE DOCTORS, DR. IAN SMITH JOIN
US LIVE TO SHARE HOW WE CAN
TAKE OUR POWER BACK. GOOD
MORNING, DR. IAN. THANKS FOR
BEING WITH US. MORNING, ERIN.
THANKS FOR HAVING ME. SO THIS
HAS BEEN KIND OF THE THEME OF
THIS SEASON OF THE DOCTORS
TAKING YOUR POWER BACK. WHAT
DOES THAT MEAN? WHAT DOES IT
MEAN TO TAKE YOUR POWER BACK?
WE KNOW THE PAST YEAR HAS BEEN
SO TROUBLING FOR SO MANY OF US
AND SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE FELT
HELPLESS BASICALLY LIKE THEY'VE
LOST CONTROL OF SO MANY ASPECTS
OF THEIR LIVES. AND WE WANT
REALLY TO EMPOWER PEOPLE TO
ENCOURAGE PEOPLE, TO INSPIRE
PEOPLE THAT YOU CAN TAKE BACK
YOUR POWER AND SO IT'S ALL
ABOUT MENTAL WELLNESS. IT'S
ABOUT PHYSICAL WELLNESS,
SPIRITUAL WELLNESS. WE REALLY
WANT TO KIND OF EMBOLDEN PEOPLE
TO REALIZE THERE'S SOME THINGS
YOU CAN'T CONTROL IN LIFE WITH
THOSE THINGS YOU CAN CONTROL
WON'T HELP YOU GET THERE. AND
VIEWERS HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT
THEY HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING A
LOT. WHAT DO YOU THINK AND WHAT
HAVE YOU HEARD? I HAVE BEEN THE
BIGGEST STRUGGLES FROM VIEWERS
OVER THE LAST YEAR OR SO. WELL,
I THINK REALLY IT'S ABOUT THE
LACK OF NORMALCY. IT'S PEOPLE
NOT BEING ABLE TO INTERACT. NOT
BEING ABLE TO SOCIALIZE. SEEING
FAMILY MEMBERS RELATIONSHIPS.
WE COVER A LOT ON THE SHOW THIS
SEASON. WE'RE NOT JUST TALKING
ABOUT VACCINES WHICH OF COURSE
THAT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
TALK ABOUT VACCINES SUPPLY AND
WHAT THEY MEAN AND HOW TO GET
THEM AND WHY WE NEED THEM.
WE'RE ALSO TALKING ABOUT
RELATIONSHIPS AND HOW TO FIND
THAT SPECIAL PERSON DURING THIS
VERY DIFFICULT TIME. WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT KIDS AND TEEN
SUICIDE WHICH UNFORTUNATELY HAS
REALLY BAD. OH, OUR SHOW
DEDICATED TO THAT. SO WE'RE
COVERING A LOT OF THESE TOPICS
AND WE'RE HOPING THAT BY
COVERING IT PEOPLE WILL HAVE
KIND OF BETTER CLARITY ABOUT
THE ISSUES AND FIND SOME
SOLUTIONS THAT THEY CAN EMPLOY
IN THEIR OWN LIVES. AND WHAT'S
IT BEEN LIKE? I MEAN YOU GUYS
HAVE BEEN BEEN FILMING THIS
SHOW WHILE WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE
OF THIS PANDEMIC AS WELL.
WHAT'S IT BEEN LIKE FOR YOUR
TEAM OVER THE LAST SEVERAL
MONTHS? WELL, WE'D LIKE
EVERYBODY ELSE. WE'RE TRYING TO
FIGURE IT OUT. I MEAN I'M HERE
IN MY MAN CAVE. WE'VE NOT BEEN
IN STUDIO FOR A WHILE. WE WERE
IN STUDIO FOR A LITTLE BIT
EARLIER IN THE YEAR. BUT NOW
WE'RE AT HOME AND EVERYONE'S
KIND OF IN DIFFERENT PLACES
AROUND THE COUNTRY ON ZOOM. SO
IT'S NOT BEEN EASY. BUT ONE
THING ABOUT AMERICANS IS THAT
WE'RE RESILIENT AND WE'RE
CREATIVE AND YOU JUST FIGURE IT
OUT. YOU JUST GOTTA LEARN HOW
TO MAKE IT WORK. TIM GUNN DOES
ALWAYS IT MAKE IT WORK AND I
LOVE THAT EXPRESSION. EXACTLY.
OK. NOW A LOT OF PEOPLE
CONSIDERING MAYBE TRYING TO
DROP THAT COVETED 15 THAT
QUARANTINE 15 GUYS HAD THE FAST
BURN CHALLENGE. TELL US ABOUT
WHAT THAT ENTAILS. ABSOLUTELY.
WE GOT AN ANSWER FOR YOU. SO MY
NEW BOOK IS CALLED FAST BURN.
IT'S A NINE WEEK PROGRAM. IT
COMBINES ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF
WEIGHT LOSS STRATEGIES FROM
INTERMITTENT FASTING TO CLEANER
EATING TO REALLY GOOD BASIC
EXERCISES YOU COULD DO RIGHT AT
HOME. IT'S A REALLY FUN
PROGRAM. EVERY WEEK IS
DIFFERENT. WE'RE FOLLOWING
SEVEN VIEWERS ON THE SHOW
STARTING FEBRUARY 1ST WHO ARE
GOING TO TRANSFORM THE PEOPLE
WE WORKED WITH KIND OF OFF LINE
HAVE LOST SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS
OF WEIGHT. THEY'VE TALKED ABOUT
HOW EASY TO PLAN IS HOW
AFFORDABLE AND ACCESSIBLE THE
FOOD IS. AND SO WE WANT PEOPLE
TO FOLLOW US NOT JUST ON THE TV
SHOW BUT ALSO ONLINE. DR. STEVE
AECOM WANT TO POST ALL TYPES OF
RECIPES AND WORKOUTS. MY
INSTAGRAM PAGE AT DR. IAN SMITH
SPELL THE DOCTOR THAT ALSO HAS
A LOT OF INFORMATION. SO WE'RE
GONNA GET PEOPLE TO MESSED UP
ON THE NEWS RESOLUTIONS GOING
TO BRAND BACK INTO THE BOWL.
ALL RIGHT. AND HEY, YOU'RE A
DOCTOR BUT YOU'RE ALSO A HUMAN
BEING TOO. WHAT'S BEEN THE
BIGGEST STRUGGLE FOR YOU DURING
THIS QUARANTINE? WELL, I THINK
YOU KNOW, NOT SEEING YOU KNOW,
MY MOTHER NOT BEING ABLE TO
VISIT HER AND OTHER FAMILY
MEMBERS HAS BEEN TOUGH AND AND
NOT BEING ABLE TO OBVIOUSLY
HANG OUT WITH FRIENDS AND HAVE
DINNER. BUT I HAVE TO TELL YOU
SOMETHING I SAID IN THE
BEGINNING OF THIS PANDEMIC I'M
GOING TO BE AS PRODUCTIVE AS
POSSIBLE AND MAKE LEMONADE OUT
OF LEMONS. AND SO I WOULD
REALLY STICK IN TO DOING MY
PROJECTS WRITING A LOT. AND SO
IT HASN'T BEEN AWFUL SINCE. BUT
OBVIOUSLY THE LOSS OF LIFE LOSS
OF LIFE EXPERIENCE HAS AFFECTED
ALL OF US. AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR
US TO GET THROUGH IT.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. DR. IAN
SMITH, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
BEING WITH US THIS MORNING.
MEANS A LOT TO US. AND FOR MORE
INFORMATION, AS YOU MENTIONED,
THE DOCTORS TV ICON HAS MORE
INFO ON HOW TO DROP THAT
QUARANTINE 15. WE THANK YOU FOR
BEING WITH US.
